The Rockingbird . The Hurt Locker won 6 Oscars, dude (Picture, Director, Original Screenplay, Editing, and both Sound categories). Spotlight, on the other hand, is the first Best Picture winner to win that *and just one other Oscar* since 1952's The Greatest Show on Earth (which also won Best Story). Before that was Alfred Hitchcock's 1940 American directorial debut Rebecca (which also won Best B&W Cinematography).

Today, exactly three years later since the award, I finally saw this picture. The movie at first seemed to progress slow to a point that i started falling asleep. but then as the story evolved, so did my attention: it was a crime that many people knew about and that their kids may have gone through, it was big yet hidden. It was monstrous yet no one had been made responsible. But in the end justice won with the help of professional and devoted journalists... Of all the other nominees that were truly greatful as well, I strongly approve of the decision to award Best Picture to Spotlight. Why? Because, being a global-scale sad reality of what has been going on for years, decades, centuries, it was finally made public. And this movie has made a real-life impact and brought about change - at least in people's minds. My salute to the journalists who made this happen!

The practice of the entire crew going on stage for the award started when Lord of the Rings won in 2004.

Spotlight is the most deserving film among the 8 to win Best Picture. It is the only film that has more meaning than the rest. It resurrected one of the mos horrific issues in modern times. Good thing that the Vatican recognizes it and recommended it to the priests.

IT MADE sense that "Spotlight" won this year's Oscar for best picture. The movie, about the journalism that exposed a cover-up of abusive priests, is built around a topic that horrifies people, but one that needs to be explored so it won't happen again. It was a safe, if not worthy, pick. But despite what the academy told us, it wasn't the best film of 2015. That would be "Room." Where "Spotlight" spent too much time detailing the pursuit of justice and dedicated mere minutes to examining the horrors that led to that pursuit, "Room" immerses you for nearly two hours into the world of a young woman who was kidnapped and turned into a captive sex slave. It isn't just an examination of survival and escape, but the affects of living through a nightmare. And that is what makes "Room" such a remarkable movie: It forces us to stare at a few of our darkest fears, but has enough artifice and resolve to convince us that we can't turn away for even a moment.

This was one hell of a good year for movies.

You know, if I ever make a movie, I'd pray it gets nominated for Best Picture, but I'd pray even harder it doesn't win. Winning Best Picture is just about the most tragic thing that can happen to a movie. Even if the movie was critically acclaimed, it will receive an enormous backlash. People will call the movie overrated and start hating the movie because it beat their preferred movie, even though it's still the exact same fucking movie. And even if it doesn't beat any other treasured movies, people will still think it's overrated. It's like people think the producers paid the Oscar voters. It'd be better for a movie's reception if they just gave an Oscar to every single nominee. And no, The Revenant did not deserve to win at all, and I knew it wouldn't. It's entirely a visual movie. It was horribly written, and would be absolutely shit to watch on your phone. Spotlight was a masterpiece in every aspect. Everyone knew Spotlight would win Best Original Screenplay, so it would only make sense for that or The Big Short to win Best Picture. It makes absolutely no sense when a movie wins Best Picture but not Best Screenplay. A movie's story, dialogue and characters are 95% of what makes it good. And no movie has ever won Best Picture without even being nominated for Best Screenplay, that's also how I knew The Revenant wouldn't win.

+Mike Ock I don't mean to act like an elitist, but if you think movies are 95% about dialogue and writing, then you are missing a very key part of movies. The most powerful scenes in the Revenant were the ones that didn't involve any dialogue, the dream sequences which beautifully showcased man's connection with the natural world, arguably the entire theme of the movie. Some of the greatest films ever made are movies which rely far more on visual storytelling than storytelling through dialogue; 2001: A Space Odyssey, Solaris, The Tree of Life, Days of Heaven. And if movies are meant to be centered on writing and dialogue, then why the hell are movies like The Artist and Chicago so celebrated? Movies are not books, they do not have to tell their entire story through writing. Film is, at its core, a visual medium. And yes, of course, films must tell some kind of story, but the greatest ones are the ones that can use the visual medium to tell a story. Those are the movies that need to be celebrated. I agree with your statement about never wanting to win the best picture, though. Spotlight was phenomenal and even if it wasn't my favourite movie of the year, it certainly doesn't deserve the backlash it recieved.

+Mike Ock So, are you endorsing the trophy culture that is stunting the growth of our next generation as I type this? NO. They shouldn't give Oscars to everyone. Let the haters hate. It's the life of the artist to deal with criticism. Trust me, I go through it all the time. You cannot please everyone. With that mentality, you might want to stay away from being an artist all together.

One of my favorite movies... very well deserved

was so random. then i actually watched the movie. holy moly, probably the best movie i've seen in the last 20yrs.

CAROL should have been nominated for BEST PICTURE

Well Done Spotlight You Deserved it.

I loved The Martian but I'm glad Spotlight won. It's a such an important story and it was wonderfully told. Great story, script, great actors.

*Spotlight is one of the best films ever and important winner.* It should be celebrated.

Morgan Freeman lol I saw those mixed feelings in his eyes haha

That was such a killer year for movies.

Every single time after Oscars: "Wow, this movie won Best Picture. Deserving/Suprising". 2016: "Yeah, Leo got his first. Best Picture? Who cares?"

Rest In Peace, Mr. Steve fucking Golin! Love this man’s work! So glad that he won an Oscar at all!

Thanks for pointing him out. I was like, "Why?" Then I went and did what anyone should do. To think, he was up against himself for Best Picture for producing The Revenant too. He won for the film that deserved it. Unfortunately, he isn't with us anymore. Hollywood needs more producers like him. How did you know about him?

Junebug Presents watching this movie and The Fifth Estate and looking at Anonymous Content

Watched this in theatres in 2016, saw it again just now, this was truly and incredibly well made and even better acted investigative journalist film on a super important story, while it was a tough category of films nominated it was well deserved….Still love Mad Max: Fury Road

Spotlight was an incredible movie. This was such a close race.

One of the best movies that I've ever wathed, terrific movie, well deserved.

amazing film

What a great year for movies The Big short and Spotlight, 2 of my favorite movies of all time.

2015: Spotlight 2016: Moonlight If you need to win best picture, put anyname with light.

My order for me: Spotlight > Room > Bridge of Spies > The Revenant > Brooklyn > Mad Max > The Martian > The Big Short

Spotlight Great Film!

This moment is what I call "A LOVELY DAY!"

"Spotlight" becomes the 20th film to win Best Motion Picture and not Best Achievement in Directing. Also, it became the 1st journalistic film, after 3 tries, to win the top prize. Finally, the 2nd film to win 2 Oscars("The Greatest Show on Earth" did at the 1953 Oscars Ceremony).

Two things: 1 - Comparatively talking, Spotlight won best picture, and All The President's Men didn't. Wierd. 2 - Nither of the two winners of 2 Oscars should have won.

+ledepi34 I honest understand what your saying, ledepi34. I am just saying that it took this long to have a journalistic film to win the top prize. I also respectfully disagree on "Spotlight" winning Best Motion Picture. I do agree that the "Greatest Show On Earth" shouldn't have won Best Motion Picture back in 1953.
